Post-Game Talk: GAME 36 - BRUINS 4 - CBJ 1

  • Xenforo Cloud will be upgrading us to version 2.3.5 on March 3rd at 12 AM GMT. This version has increased stability and fixes several bugs. We expect downtime for the duration of the update. The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates
Keep these lines together. Everyone seems to be gelling.


Good win. Battled a lot but good teams put behind them bad periods and come out and turn the tires the next period. The Bruins did that. Everyone is putting in the work. So when we see uncharacteristic mistakes, of course people will notice. Carlo tonight had some, but he recovered and that's all you can ask for. Lohrei's lip... good golly. I hope they can fix that thing. Poor kid got in the ringer tonight. Tough kid though.

PP 2 need to be the #1 PP for a few games. They don't around. They get right to the point. Gotta love that. Good win. Goodbye, Columbus Zoo!



You already know the drill!

Merkulov in for Beecher at 4C and that line definitely had better numbers and spent less time in its own zone compared to the last few games. But it's Columbus so probably can't read too much into that. Good effort though, expect we'll see the same combo against the Pens, that will be a more usable test.

I mean I’m sure they exist….but I mean with the volume this place has.

It varies by team. Predictably the Leafs board certainly looks very busy, obviously for a team like Columbus not so much. Ours would have to be in the top 5. Someone like @Fenway or @Gee Wally could probably give you some kind of stats in terms of the volume of posts and views per board.

Toronto is a universe in itself

We are the busiest US-based board but Montreal is ahead of us

Rangers are right behind us

Lol if you're ever up late late and look at the boards where it shows the amount of members viewing... Bruins board is pretty much always over 100 members viewing even at 2am edt. Around that same time usually TB and FLA have about 10 viewing.

The East has the more quality teams, but, that being said, right now I would declare Winnipeg has the best team in the NHL. Of course, that is subject to change.

Jets have heavy defense for most part ( Pionk DeMelo, Dillon) & benefit from players not willing to pay the price shift in shift out .I will watch them in playoffs with intrigue to see if opponents game changes with more at stake .

I thought Winnipeg looked to be the best team the Bruins have faced this season.

That said, I thought the Oilers and Flames were the best the prior two seasons, so caveat emptor.

A lot of factors involved

Some markets had dedicated message boards to their city or team, several NHL clubs had their own message boards

In some markets the NHL team is the least popular - Washington is a good example.

For the most part traffic on HF reflects national TV ratings in both countries. The biggest fanbase in the NHL is NOT Toronto, it is Poutineville when you include Francophones.

The Bruins have the largest fanbase in the US but Detroit is the sleeping giant.

Jvr, Heinen and Frederic did not start well, but sure finished up well. Good game from Ully.

I am concerned about our D corps though. With the exception of Shatty, none of them look healthy or right.. 73 can't shoot or pass with any force. (I suspect a shoulder or wrist injury.) 27 looked slow again, and 25 is mostly on planet X, making baffling turnovers. Grz is Grz for better and worse.

Yet somehow tbey only allowed one goal. Hmm
 
It is feeling more that the slump they went through before Christmas was just that, a slump. While they weren't quite as energized last night as in the three games prior, they still did exactly how much was needed. They will need to play like that with the brutal schedule coming up.

Good road win! I love JVR, never thought I would be posting that!
